The moment King Noor stepped inside his own palace throne room his gaze swept quickly over his family members. He looked at his wife Queen.
He looked at his injured sons Raven and Leonard.
He looked at his loyal Commander Charles. The sight that greeted him the tired worried faces the injuries confirmed his deepest fears. A look of stark and immediate concern etched itself onto his face.
He could tell with a sinking heavy heart that his greatest nightmare regarding the stability of his kingdom had likely come true. The kingdom was in trouble during his absence.
Without uttering a single word about his own terrible ordeal in the Empire without mentioning Eric's situation or the Emperor King Noor walked forward with a heavy tread.
He went to his royal seat and seated himself upon his throne. Everyone present the Queen his sons and Commander Charles stared at him.
